shoot, the most generic and less resounding name was chosen. I don't believe in democracy anymore

You're too harsh! Thing is, everyone was expecting Athenian democracy where the voice of the majority decides but, instead, we got the Soviet Russian version where, in the end, papa Putin Vince knows best. I love the prank he pulled.

"Born Beneath No Sun" sounds best to me. It's got an air of mystery that, to me, captures the bleakness of being raised surrounded by a void.

Enemy of the State!!!

I remember someone asking recently which faction is Vince's favorite. While he was politically correct about it and replied that he understands everyone's point of view and doesn't favor any particular one, I'd bet big bucks that he's actually running the Protectors from the shadows.

Nick <- It's not really that big of a deal, I'm just teasing you guys in the name of collective amusement.

Speaking of the official site, I've been meaning to ask about this for some time: Could someone also update the "Companions" section or post here on the forum a complete list with the bios of the so-far announced companions? I kind of lost track of them as they've been introduced one or a few at a time. I doubt I'd be the only one who'd enjoy such an overview. If the website were to be updated, it might be a good selling point with some people as they might grow fond of one of the companions or at the sheer number and variety of them. Personally, I'm pretty excited about those characters.
